The Deadly Companions (1961): Former Union Army sergeant Yellowleg (Brian Keith) is out to track down a Rebel deserter named Turk (Chill Wills). Before he settles the score with Turk, he needs his and his lowbrow buddy's help robbing a bank. When the robbery goes awry, the young son of a dancehall girl (Maureen O'Hara) is killed. Guilt-stricken, Yellowleg pledges to take the young woman to bury her son next to his father's grave.

Fairplay (1972): When a city traveler steps off the train in the town of Fairplay, he is in for a real wild ride. Before he can hang up his hat, he gets drawn into a shootout with rival gunfighters he does not even know, while he was only hoping to get in a friendly word with the pretty girls down at the saloon. This hilarious Western comedy packs plenty of laughs to go around!
